Hi Steve,

Good to hear that you are dealing with this. Subject to agreeing the changes with our project manager at the National Trust, Helen Armstrong. I comment as follows…

1. Reduce the proposed double doors into the reception area (Coach House first floor) to a wider single door that would accommodate disabled access. Is it also possible to introduce a lintel above the door.

The revised door width should be acceptable subject to agreeing with the NT

The head height is too low to include a lintel. We are working with existing levels and the height is under 2m as it is. I think the arrangement shown is better than breaking the roofline.

2. Could we have a detail plan to say 1:50, describing how the roof of the mess building and the new extension will join, it doesn’t appear clear enough at the moment.

OK

3. Could the internal space be arranged in the proposed new building so as to re-position the single door to the NT store, perhaps to the side, which would reduce the scale of the large opening in the end elevation.

We will look at this, should be possible to rearrange subject to agreeing with the NT

4. Could the doors to the substation be clad with vertical boarded timber.

The substation requirements are set by the provider. The doors are specified by them… I’ll enquire with our contact there…

We will aim to get revised drawings back once I have spoken to Elect. Supplier and Helen.

Regards Simon

Good morning Simon

Due to the pressures of work in the north area team presently, I’ve been allocated the above applications to deal with. Having discussed them with the Conservation Officer, there are some minor amendments I would like you to address,

As follows.

1. Reduce the proposed double doors into the reception area (Coach House first floor) to a wider single door that would accommodate disabled access. Is it also possible to introduce a lintel above the door.
2. Could we have a detail plan to say 1:50, describing how the roof of the mess building and the new extension will join, it doesn’t appear clear enough at the moment.
3. Could the internal space be arranged in the proposed new building so as to re-position the single door to the NT store, perhaps to the side, which would reduce the scale of the large opening in the end elevation.
4. Could the doors to the substation be clad with vertical boarded timber.

Should you agree to these changes, then please send me amended plans as soon as is practical, I can then clear the applications as soon as.

Regards

Steve
